Node.js + Canvas + Arduino + Javascript

ArduinoParticle

A simple example using node.js, canvas and javascript integrated with arduino.

This application depends of, express.js 3.x, socket.io and serialport. To install do:

npm install [email protected]
npm install serialport
npm install socket.io
npm install http

To run the application, access the node folder and start the app.js

node app.js

After that you can access in your browser:

http://127.0.0.1:8090

Probably you will need edit the USB port, so go to app.js at line 6, and edit:

SerialPort('/dev/tty.usbserial-A800G0JO');

Fix it like this:
